Rustic guest cabin set in the high country between Telluride and Ridgway

Situated amongst aspens and pines, and just 40 minutes from Telluride's festivals, The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is fully equipped for those who appreciate simplicity in a rustic setting. Complete with bedroom, kitchenette and bath, this cozy space is kept warm by wood stove and cool by the mountain breeze.

The BunkHouse at Piney Woods is centrally located between Telluride, Ridgway and Ouray on a 10 acre parcel which also houses the main Family Cabin. The Family Cabin is occupied by the owners/caretakers and is situated across the driveway from The BunkHouse. Just west of the Dallas Divide Summit, the property is easily accessed from CO Hwy 62.

The property is quiet and secluded near the end of the road, amongst a mixture of 5 to 40 acre parcels making up the surrounding "neighborhood." There are walking trails around the acreage and along the gravel roads in the subdivision. Property is forested with Ponderosa Pine, Douglas Fir, Gambrel Oak, and Aspen, as well as many wildflowers.

What a perfect place to stay in the San Juans! It is situated between Ridgway and Telluride, with Ouray nearby as well, so mountain exploration possibilities are endless. The location of the bunkhouse is beautiful and although it's in the same driveway as the main house, it still maintains its privacy, especially with the deck. Also, the kindness of the folks living in the main house is unparalleled, so we could not recommend this stay enough!

Hosts are friendly and very helpful! Let us know of all the different ways we could get around since a road near by was going to be closed for maintenance. We appreciated all of their help! Great location! Peaceful area! Comfy cabin with a wood stove. We always enjoy are stay there. Even saw a small herd of elk walk by the back deck while eating dinner!

The Bunkhouse is a hidden gem that I can’t recommend enough. It’s scenic, serene, and the perfect place to stay in between Telluride and Ouray. The surrounding neighborhood is beautiful with the fall foliage, and right off the Last Dollar Road, which has some of the best fall colors. I loved my stay at this cozy cabin, and plan on coming back!

Absolutely amazing place and hosts! They made everything super easy and relaxing. The cabin was clean and cozy, and we loved the area. Our hosts provided lots of amenities and even a little welcome gift for us AND our pups. Located near Ouray, Telluride and Silverton - we got a chance to explore and relax all in one trip. Thank you oh souch for your kindness and care. - The Zelinas

We enjoyed our visit so much! Marianne was so hospitable from beginning to end, even leaving us a personalized welcome note. She was extremely helpful in helping us decide how to plan our time there because she is very well-informed about the area. The cabin is adorable and homey, with great little touches in the decorating and theme matching the area. It was a pleasure and I will enjoy going back!

I cannot recommend this BunkHouse enough. It was the perfect little place for us to stay in while visiting Telluride and Ouray. It is very affordable and peaceful compared to staying in town, and hosts Marianne & Larry went out of their way to make us feel so welcomed and relaxed while staying in their Bunkhouse. It was very reassuring knowing that our hosts were so responsive, friendly, and caring about their property and guests. The bunkhouse was stocked with everything we needed to cook a few meals and had a beautiful deck to sit on and enjoy our evening drinks and morning coffee. We will certainly be staying here again if we find ourselves in the area again and will be telling all of our friends and family to stay here as well.

A little slice of Heaven

My wife and I stayed at the Bunkhouse this weekend during a trip for our 6th anniversary. This cabin is nothing short of beautiful. Marianne and Larry were the nicest hosts and definitely put in the extra effort to make the stay comfortable and special. The cabin was super clean and has an awesome view off the back patio. Will definitely stay at the place again in the future.
